Puppy Socialization and Training
The energy of a new puppy is wondrous and overwhelming, especially for first-time dog owners. This package will lay the foundation for a loving relationship with your dog. Communication is key, and together, we will create a lasting bond built on trust. We'll also cover common puppy issues, as well as how to prevent future behavior problems.
Skills covered: Potty training is a full time job, and crate training is vitally important. I will teach you how to crate train in tandem with potty training, so you can get some rest during this crucial (and sometimes exhausting!) stage of your dog's life. You'll discover how to continue reinforcing good potty behavior after our sessions, while your puppy will learn to view their crate as a safe and rewarding space. We'll also work on positive socialization, loose-leash walking, and basic obedience.

In-home Private Training
Your furry friend spends most of their time at home, so it's a natural and convenient place to train. I'll observe your dog's behavior in and around your house to determine and implement your pooch's individual training needs. In-home training is also perfect for working on puppy behavorial issues (e.g., jumping up on guests, impulse control, destructive chewing). My training goal is to set your family and your pet up for a lifetime of successful companionship.
Train While You Are Busy
Best suited for the busy puppy/dog owner in need of basic training. I will meet with you and your pup at the beginning of the first session to go over your goals and expectations. After meeting with you briefly, I will come and train your dog while you are away or working from home. I will send videos and emails describing what we worked on while you were away so you can maintain and strengthen those new behaviors.
Virtual Training
Not located in Los Angeles? No problem. Book a virtual session to address any issue your dog is having. Covid-19 and Safer at Home orders make this a perfect option during this unprecedented time. This can also be a great option with aggressive or territorial dogs. Sessions can be accessed through Skype, Zoom or FaceTime.
